12 Reasons To Choose Artificial Flowers For Your Wedding

"Should I choose artificial flowers for my wedding?" That is always one of the key questions for the brides when they prepare for the big day.

Flower is just one part of wedding planning, but adding more choices can get overwhelming very quickly.

It's no question that fresh flowers would look excellent and natural. However, you should not underestimate the realism of artificial flowers with current technology.

If you don't think you like artificial flowers in general, it could be because (1) most have the "cheap look," (2) they are not real and (3) good ones are extremely expensive. Here are top 12 reasons why you should consider artificial flowers:

1. It's more convenient to order ahead of time versus fresh flowers because if you keep fresh flowers for too long, they won't look the same. Time is just what you don't have for your wedding.
2. It works for allergic people. You definitely don't want to look bad from fresh flower allergy on that special day, do you?
3. They are everlasting and you can keep them after wedding for memory.
4. You can reuse the same artificial flowers for wedding photography session and your wedding day if they are weeks or months apart.
5. There is no need to worry about non-seasonal flowers. With artificial flowers, you can get any type of flowers and any colour.
6. It's actually lighter to carry artificial flowers than fresh ones.
7. They don't attract bees and other insects.
8. If you get married in an extreme weather area (too cold or too hot), artificial flower is perfect.
9. It's very easy to transport artificial flowers during your wedding. The flowers won't break or get torn off.
10. You can put them in a suitcase. Imagine people running around and someone may damage your fresh flowers! That probably won't look good.
11. You can re-use wedding artificial flowers to decorate your home.
12. Finally, it's actually more economic to use artificial flowers for wedding. Let say if you have a centerpiece as below picture with the "real touch" artificial daisies, you can pretty much keep the flowers and create a new arrangement after the wedding and keep it forever.
